Future of interoperability in development - contributors wanted for next version (Sept 2013) • www.advantagefactory.com, www.maplarge.com, www.detectachem.com, www.mystateusa.com
Discussion • Cloud computing accelerating globally • Strong value proposition: • Rapid deployment • Lower costs – normal and surge • Redundancy built in • Interoperability with authorized parties • Reputable providers • Concerns: • Security (better in my opinion) • Loss of control
Future Directions – changes underway • More cloud providers • Price war • More use of standards • Tablets coupled • More enterprise apps • Cloud interoperability • Real time becomes key • Legacy overhang • IT walls being scaled – Bring your own device • Big data – trillions/txns • Sharing policy needed
CAP – key value points Interoperable International Fast time to deploy Compatible CAP Flexible Critical Mass Future Dev Path Embedded in COTS
Much more than meteorological..360 Degree Risk Picture • GPS tracked people • GPS tracked equipment • Social media monitoring • RSS to CAP • Bio sensors • Environment sensors • Explosive test results • Video surveillance alerts • Power outages
Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) • Solutions: • TIES and Cybero – situational awareness/cyber • Vigilance (Pinkerton) – commercial security/intel • MystateUSA – mass alerting • Fusion Core – intelligence information fusion • Previstar – incident management • Premium Feeds: • Global Incident Map • NC4
Demonstration • Production system in the cloud - TIES • Start up in minutes – import, fuse, publish • Scale to hundreds or thousands of users • Aggregate external info, publish internal • Common and user-defined operating picture • Interoperable with other commercial products • Unique Community of Trust architecture • Easy to use – kiosk view needs no training
Recap – some key points • CAP is very versatile for multiple situations • Cloud based deployments are largely Operating Expenses and not major CAPEX • SAAS allows for scale-up and scale down based on need and location • Community of Trust allows use of outside partners
